Based on my research, it looks like this question has been beaten to death but with the release of Apex Devastator there's one question I still have.
Let's say I cast Apex Devastator with Imoti, Celebrant of Bounty on the field. 5 Cascade triggers go on the stack. The first trigger reveals some 8CMC spell in my deck. Would that spell's cascade (provided by Imoti) go on the stack after the remaining 4 cascade triggers resolved, or would it then be placed on top of the other 4? I think my confusion comes from the formatting of Apex Devastator's text. I know a single block of text is a single ability and can't be responded part way through. However, cascade states in the rules text that each one triggers separately. This leads me to believe that the 8CMC spell would go on the stack prior to the others resolving and you trigger each of the "strings" of triggers of the 5 cascades 1 at a time.
I'm fairly sure my line of thinking is correct, but I wanted to double check.

This isn't true for keyword abilities. Multiple keywords in a single line are still multiple separated abilities, not a single one.

Each instance of Cascade is a separated object on the stack. When one resolves and casts a card that also has Cascade, this new instance of Cascade goes on the stack above the 8 CMC spell and the remaining original Apex Devastatpr cascades.
